Gmail - the sequel
September 26, 2006 10:52 AM   Subscribe

I live in a backwater region known as Canada. I have no cool friends. How do I get a gmail account?

I don't know anyone who has an account, and I have searched the archives. Basically, I'm hooped.

I (whine on) really want a gmail account (/whine), but I can't sign up in Canada, nor can I use my cell phone number. And to be honest, I really don't want to pay someone for an invitation.

Help me kind hive dwellers. Are there none among you with an extra invitation that you meant to give to Aunt May but never did? Please help a backwoods bumpkin have an uptown address...I would say very nice things about you at every opportunity if you were to do such a kindness.

I have a feeling you are going to be bombarded with invitations. Feel free to share the extras with your friends.

I believe you can get a GMail account without an invite nowadays. Just sign up for a Google Account on the main Google site, and after that there'll be a link to "mail".
